On graphs G for which both G and 'G are claw-free
نویسنده
چکیده
Let G be a graph with |V (G)| ≥ 10. We prove that if both G and G are claw-free, then min{∆(G), ∆(G)} ≤ 2. As a generalization of this result in the case where |V (G)| is sufficiently large, we also prove that if both G and G are K1,t-free, then min{∆(G), ∆(G)} ≤ r(t− 1, t)− 1 where r(t− 1, t) is the Ramsey number.

On the edge-connectivity of C_4-free graphs
Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ and minimum degree $delta(G)$.The edge-connectivity $lambda(G)$ of $G$ is the minimum numberof edges whose removal renders $G$ disconnected. It is well-known that$lambda(G) leq delta(G)$,and if $lambda(G)=delta(G)$, then$G$ is said to be maximally edge-connected. A classical resultby Chartrand gives the sufficient condition $delta(G) geq frac{n-1}{2}$fo...
متن کاملOn cycles in intersection graphs of rings
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with non-zero identity. We describe all $C_3$- and $C_4$-free intersection graph of non-trivial ideals of $R$ as well as $C_n$-free intersection graph when $R$ is a reduced ring. Also, we shall describe all complete, regular and $n$-claw-free intersection graphs. Finally, we shall prove that almost all Artin rings $R$ have Hamiltonian intersection graphs. ...
متن کامل-λ coloring of graphs and Conjecture Δ ^ 2
For a given graph G, the square of G, denoted by G2, is a graph with the vertex set V(G) such that two vertices are adjacent if and only if the distance of these vertices in G is at most two. A graph G is called squared if there exists some graph H such that G= H2. A function f:V(G) {0,1,2…, k} is called a coloring of G if for every pair of vertices x,yV(G) with d(x,y)=1 we have |f(x)-f(y)|2 an...
متن کاملClosure operation for even factors on claw-free graphs
Ryjacek [Z. Ryjáček: On a closure concept in claw-free graphs. Journal of Combinatorial Theory Ser. B 70 (1997), 217-224] defined a powerful closure operation cl(G) on claw-free graphs G. Very recently, Ryjacek, Yoshimoto and the talker developed the closure operation cl (G) on claw-free graphs which preserves the (non)-existence of a 2-factor. In this talk, we introduce a closure operation cl(...
متن کاملOn the domination polynomials of non P4-free graphs
A graph $G$ is called $P_4$-free, if $G$ does not contain an induced subgraph $P_4$. The domination polynomial of a graph $G$ of order $n$ is the polynomial $D(G,x)=sum_{i=1}^{n} d(G,i) x^{i}$, where $d(G,i)$ is the number of dominating sets of $G$ of size $i$. Every root of $D(G,x)$ is called a domination root of $G$. In this paper we state and prove formula for the domination polynomial of no...
